Well I suppose I was thinking along the lines that those in my draft may not put them high on their own draftboards and I could get a great player at say FS from a gunner as my third selection. I have a specific player that I have rated as a 5 out of 5 for FS but is currently listed as a gunner in the draft. I broke down a system for rating players in positions out of 5. I take the top 4 attributes that I think are important. I put a minimum for the ideal level of each attribute. For every attribute they are at the minimum or above that is a point. The 5th point is if they have a special trait. I use my rating and the talent level to order my players. So this gunner rates as a 5 for me at fs which is better than most of the safeties that are listed as such. Might be a way to nab a possible top tier safety, cb, or wr by looking at gunners and kr's. I think Gunners have a future at CB or SF, although I rate them a bit low on STR. Same for KR as RB - a bit low at STR. I found my Gunners were a better looking group, overall, than the KRs. I did something similar, Jim [edited], but focused on age, talent, Str, Spd, Int, TWk. I did some weighting for Talent and Age, and ran totals. As I am drafting 32nd in each round, I didn't think it was worth worrying too much about the best 10 players - they will be gone (there are only a handful of Bot teams in my league). So I'm trying to draft the best available athlete, and if need be I will re-position them. For instance, I originally downgraded a smart young talented strong LB because of low speed. Based on my formula he should be much higher. If I get him I'll play him at MLB but train him at a position where his low speed doesn't hurt him. (I'll take the hit for playing him out of position.) So - I think it's a good idea to think outside the box on some of these guys. And since I'm doing that, I hope to have two of my top 40 fall in my lap. Nothing I can do about the 3rd round - I'm getting whoever is left, which made sorting the last 32 players irrelevant . Last edited on 2011-11-29 20:44:20 by Lee1950 |

I didn't know if it was related to my screen name. sfniner= san fransisco 49ers and 08=Steve Young (my favorite qb of all time).

Question about the draft and player distribution:
I noticed that after ranking and tiering my players there is a drop off after the first 32. There are 32 selections per round. Is that coincidence or is it by design? Are there tiers of players selected to be in the draft pool or is it completely random? |
